residual operating current of no more than 30 mA is recom­mended to provide additional protection. Ask your electrician
for advice. The installation should only be carried out by a

qualied electrician.

DANGER of electric shock

• Do not operate the device if the device or the cable

shows visible signs of damage or if the device has
been dropped.

• Only connect the mains plug to a properly installed socket,

which is easily accessible and supplies voltage matching the
rating plate. The socket must still be easily accessible after
connection.

• Ensure that the cable cannot be damaged by sharp edges or

hot surfaces. Do not wrap the cable around the device (cable
break danger!).

socket, and allow the device to cool adequately. Before switch­ing it back on, ensure that there are no hairs or foreign bodies
blocking the air inlet.
